What's your oldest NOS?
Just hoping to see some pics. I want to see everyone's oldest 'new old stock' razors. What's the oldest anyone has seen?

I have a George Savage & Sons that was NOS until the guy who had it honed it and sold it to me two years ago. Savage was in business for a few years in the 1840's. Photos are in the stubtail club; http://straightrazorpalace.com/269472-post1.html

dublduck special and c-mon HF
And by NOS I mean, the packages had the factory seals. The razors shaved great with the factory edge on them even after decades of sitting around.

Wow awesome straights here already.
I was really hoping someone would have a Wosty or something from the 1800s and I've seen both haha.

No original box or packing materials. Even the scales aren't original. But I'm pretty sure I was the first person who ever shaved with my Wade & Butcher Celebrated 8/8"

Greaves Silver Steel pair in combo box. I honed the one with the smudge in the center of the bevel. Great shaver. The other remains NOS. I've also go a NOS Boker Edelweiss, Puma Fruiser Fruend 1930s vintage I think and a couple of C-Mons, FWE.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Red Imp, Came in the original packing, sealed, in the coffin. Don't know when it was made. It has never been honed either. Shaved with it out of the box.

Hard to tell which is the oldest NOS, but I have two--both rescaled by Max.
